EPOTEC Primer SW

Surface insulation membrane against water, solvent and water-free, epoxy, applied in a liquid state. Designed to resist wet foundation vapours.

Use

Epotec Primer SW
Enables humidity-sensitive floorings to be installed directly on concrete and cement compounds with a humidity content of up to 100 % of relative humidity.

Epotec Primer SW (1st layer)
Enables humidity-sensitive floorings to be installed directly on concrete and cement compounds with a humidity content of up to 85 % of relative humidity.

Advantages

• • Shortens the time schedule of the project, enables earlier construction of the floor cover layers.
• • Water-resistant
• • Excellent adhesion to concrete and screeds
• • Tolerates up to 100% of relative humidity in a concrete foundation or screed
• • Easy application
• • Solvent-free, very slight odour
• • Excellent filling of joints
• • Contrasting colouring enables visual control of the evenness of the Hydraseal DPM membrane during application
• • The Epotec Primer SW system may be used for both industrial facilities with an extreme load and for commercial applications with a medium and low load
• • If using Epotec Primer SW, high-strength levelling compound Isocrete 1500 (30 N/mm²), and the Techfloor resinous surface finish, products from a single supplier may be used for the whole construction of the floor.

Technical data

The following data are typical properties acquired in a laboratory at 20 °C and at 50% relative humidity.

Hardening

Estimated service life

Epotec Primer SW is a permanent membrane, which protects the final surface finishes from being damaged by humidity for the whole service life of the floor, unless a structural movement occurs or the concrete slab is damaged or the temperature changes rapidly or the floor is exposed to temperatures exceeding 50 °C.

Environmental awareness

The system is assessed as safe for health and the environment. The controlled humidity-permeability ensured by the Epotec Primer SW system prolongs the service life of the floor and decreases the need for repairs and maintenance. Employees of Techfloor s.r.o., together with the company’s qualified and experienced contractual partners, monitor ecological and health concerns during the manufacture and application of the products.
